English to Chinese: CDOM release by DF in the central Bohai Sea General field: Science Detailed field: Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng
Source text - English Phytoplankton blooms can be an important source of autochthonous chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) in surface oceans. Here we report the first detection and optical characterization of CDOM produced during a Dictyocha fibula bloom occurring in the western central Bohai Sea in mid-summer 2019. The mean CDOM absorption coefficient at 330 nm (aCDOM(330)) in the surface water of the bloom area (3.16 ± 0.48 m-1) was 2.5 times higher than that of the adjacent bloom-absent area (1.26 ± 0.34 m-1). The aCDOM(330) increased exponentially to a maximum with increasing chlorophyll a and cell abundance of D. fibula, indicating a steady state was reached between production and consumption of CDOM. The biological index (BIX) of the fluorescent DOM (FDOM) showed little variation between bloom and background areas. The combination of these observations points to an extensive production of autochthonous CDOM by D. fibula in the bloom area. Mass budgeting indicates that the CDOM source from D. fibula (aCDOM(330): 1.98 ± 0.48 m-1) accounted for 63% of the CDOM stock in the bloom area. The spectral slope coefficients over 275–295 nm (S275–295) in the bloom area (range: 0.0228–0.0241 nm-1; mean: 0.0235 nm-1) were substantially lower than those in the bloom-absent area (range: 0.0240–0.0311 nm-1; mean: 0.0271 nm-1), suggesting a high-molecular-weight nature of the D. fibula-derived CDOM. The freshly produced CDOM contained two humic-like FDOM components and one protein-like FDOM component, and the three FDOM components were depleted in fresh CDOM relative to their counterparts in CDOM within the background area. Owing to the episodic nature of algal bloom-driven CDOM production, future attention should be paid to accelerated biogeochemical cycles (e.g., spiked oceanic trace gas emission) associated with CDOM photochemistry during algal blooms which can be easily missed for pre-scheduled field surveys.
